The school enjoys a high profile in the local authority, receiving many visits, both local and international. We are a Teaching School and provide training and support to a wide range of local schools and settings. An experienced and successful team has established excellence in teaching children with language and communication needs and Autistic Spectrum Conditions, (ASC).

The school values a multi-disciplinary approach to providing the best quality education for every child.

The Senior Leadership Team consists of the Headteacher, two Joint Deputy Headteachers and an Acting Assistant Headteacher. A School Management Team also includes the Business Manager, together with the Head and Deputies.

There are currently six full time teaching posts. There are at least two teaching assistants in each class and, and a HLTA working across the school as well as Family Liaison Worker.
